Low Light Photography with a Worship Band and Some Great Music
I did a short photo shoot of the Cornerstone worship band this past Wednesday. I am still gathering and editing the images but here are a few below from the shoot. Low light photography is one of my favorites when you can get some good directional light concentrated on the subjects. Here, it is a…

Today is Cute Wife Kid Pic Day :: Throwback Thursday
This is the next installment of Throwback Thursday as coined by my friend over at Vagabondrunn, see Throwback Thursday (5), for his latest update. This image is obviously not me, far to cute for that, but my wife, at age 4. She says she actually remembers getting this photo taken. I don’t doubt it. Funny…

National Polka Festival Saturday Parade 2008
Why does it always seem like there are a thousand things to do when you get back from a trip. I try to minimize this by taking my laptop, phone, work, all that stuff with me whenever we go out of town, and it does reduce the workload when you return, a little. It also…

National Polka Festival in Ennis Texas 2008
We are getting ready now for a nice weekend in Ennis at the National Polka Festival. Here is me and the little dude, William hanging before the festival begins. I have been able to take many photos of William each time we visit but this has to be one of my favorites. You can see…

Deborah with Some Cute Curls :: Throwback Thursday
This is my weekly post for Throwback Thursday. This is my lovely wife, at age five. I don’t normally have any images of myself since I am usually the one taking the photos, but I am starting to think that was the case back when I was growing up too. I will have to dig…

Prayers for Steven Curtis Chapman and His Family
I am sure by now just about everyone who knows who Steven Curtis Chapman is knows what happened in the news with his daughter being killed on Wednesday. One of those tragic accidents that reminds me very much of the situation with the Burgess family back in January (see Attacks on the Burgess Family). Both of…

This week I will do a shortened version of the Image of the Day, today being the only one, at least on the blog. You can follow several images I will post throughout the week via Twitpic on Twitter if you so desire. I took this shot a few years ago and I am always…

Work, and the 2008 National Polka Festival in Ennis Texas
This is going to be a very very busy week, this week. My wife and I are leaving for the National Polka Festival in Ennis Texas where she will compete in the Polka Dance contest with her dad. Something she has wanted to do, probably since she was 10. I will probably not get in…

Boulevard of Broken Dreams
As is customary on Saturday’s around our place, I am usually out cutting part of the pasture grass and listening to my music, and today wasn’t much different. Today I had a very wide range of music set to random play and the song Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green Day came on. One thing…

Colorado Columbine Flower in Bloom, Always Beautiful
There are a few wildflowers that really capture a state, and the top two that come to mind are the Texas Bluebonnets and the Colorado Columbine. The Colorado Columbine is actually native to Canada but has really become a symbol of Colorado since it was adopted as the official state flower on April 4, 1899…
